" to perform the dis tance of fourteen miles within an hour, in hare..-vi, at a trot." We are told that the animal " mode play at a winninvate." This technical phrase may be intelligible to the knowing ones, as they are called, and may poisibly mean that the poor creature ap ' feared to run with case. But we are told also that it was "driven by an expert whip of eleven stone," and this'expgr4 whip, if it was not exercised on the body of the unfortunate beast all the time, was doubtless . employed .in such -a manner as to keep 'up his speed by the force of terror. --What must be the feelings of men who, for the sake of a little paltry cash, could infli& upon a popr beast, : much more harmless than themselves, • an hour of 'Such torture H and apprehension ? But this is not all, fur it is said " the animal was offered to be backed - to perform the same distance ...within an hour, and to draw twentystone." Good God, Mr. Editor, is it possible that them. cat be so much cruelty •in a country which prides itself Onits humanity ! It wait not enough that the horse had performed so laborious a task, and endured such an hour of alarM and agony, to augment his pace, but before it could be supposed to have hardly recovered from the heat, to say no thing of the fatigue Of sdch a dreadful exertion, it was offered for a still greater effort, and would most . probably have been put to the trial, if a fear of his success, not an impulse 'of humanity, had not pre-, o'ented any bod from accepting the proposal. ~ We. m# surely say, with O f rff FLLO, " Are we turn'd Turks ?" when we hear of such horrid violation's of every feeling that ought to Charaelerike mankind.— Nay, though the Turks are ferocious euough to each other, ,and particularly to those who differ with then) in Religion, it is not probable that a ,poor dutub annual, which is so useful, and indeed so Necessary to man• when properly employed, would betreated by them with so much ingratitude and injustice. The accounts orthe Contests which take place anion the pugi-listie professors, however disgusting, are read withlegs horror than the recital oft tile Miseries which are go . often intli6teil on the inferior race of aid 4T, because in those contests each party - hasa will . dthis own, and exposes himself from motives of interest or ainbition to all that befalls him; but the pcior horse is obliged to submit to the tyranny of mon, ag ainst whose cunning his strefigth is of no snail. It.,is surely time to put an end to, these odious, prglices, which, ifnat checked by the indignation of mankind in,general, will become as fashionable as, anyyvice orfoily, and , which will degrade the'na tiriial charaaer, as well as blunt these feelings which have ra i sed it above that of any other people on , - ,1 he , face of the Earth.

THE KING V. /117 MI .boGt.i•FiTY, The Armes: BY-GFltilt A c afplied far le ive to file a criminal information, and in support of his metiou, gav e the following singtilar and afilieting narrative, fienided onntunerow, affidavits. Mr. Hnifter, who had changed his name' front • finlmes, wa - i a gentle man of large fortune, who bad a.daughter ender the age of fifteen, when the Defendant,' who was be tween thirty-fh'e and thirty-six. years of age, forted 'an ;itqnaintance with her. There was a particularity in his manner which led Mr. Hunter to suppose thitt Mr:Dogherty .was desirous'of entering into a math.: monial conneelion with the young lady. From this dirctunstance Mr. Hunter wiis induced to inquire into the 'cliaraaer and situation of the Gentleman, when he found he had no fortune, no employMent or pro fession, but many debts. Upon this discovery,. the father availed himself of the usual means to prevent intercourse : but the ingenuity Of Mr. Dogherty un happily disappointed his endeavours. This. Gentle man prevailed upon Miss Holmes to keep up a 'clandestine correspondence, with' hiM, and her father was obliged to confine her *to the 'honse, to avoid, if possible, any future interview. Wli:1-e this pecessary caution was adopted, the Detendant, either in person, or by his emissaries, under the windows, ,contrived to interchange letters, and kept her mind in snch a state of incessant 'irritation that she loSt her reason,. and at last descended to a condition of contirnied madness, In this distressing predi cament Mr. Hunter, anxious to conceal the ihtienii ty of his.daughteri sent first for the family apothe. Lary, who soon called in the assistance of Sir Walter fearqttar. This physician found that it was nor a case vhind his line of practice, and there fore recommended Dr. Simmonds. The latter, after aUefidifig the yr:mpg' Lady for a considerable time, discovered that his efibrts to tranquillize her mind were ineffectual, as Mr. Dagherty, by signals, and a variety of other experifilents, still continued his twmmunications with her. At 'last Mr. Hunter found himself compelled to seed his daughter to the private receptacle ter insane persons, under the im mediate iuspe6tion of Dr. Shomonds. Even while she was immured within this establishment, the re sources of Mr. Dogherty were not exhausted ; and he had the art to succeed in withdraWing, her from her confinement, in a Coudition,of willingness; and at the end of a mon 1), something like the ceremony of marriage was performed between . them at ltaytt ham, in Essex. • When Mr. Hunter discove i red' that his' daughter had entered into this unhappy couneclian, his pa, rental feelings would not admit him to leave her des titute, and he made her an alitawance . of soul. a-year. He at the same titne indicated leis readiness to assist Mr. 2 under, his pecuniary embarrassnlents, nut by paying hiqebts,- but by enabling him to makesonte arrangement. with his creditors. For this purpose, he first advanced 3001. for which a note of hand was given, and sub4equemly to the; extent of nearly 17001. for which Mr. Cannon, a reNpett able Attorney, undertook that Mr. Hunter should be provided .with security. The' security was given, the Defendant renraining also persomilly liable. A place called Laurel Cottage, neaM3arnet, was taken for the reception of the married couple, and the husliand was thus relieved 4031 the pressure of trig creditors. &otwitustanding tins generosity of the rather towards Mr.' Dogherty., he never permit ted his daughter's husbauii to,sit at his table, or even to tie received into hiS how, or affected any recon ciliation on account of, the marriage. In the mean time. Mrs. Dogherty was a visitor oceasionalltat the house, and made frequent- complaints,,of the mis6on dna of her husband towards her ; but the father put hem by as well 44 lie COWL), by oloqving, !' lie is the . husband of your own choosing : I will not have to do with your differences ; yotl must bear with pa tience the evils consequent on your own' indiserc tion." . Mitch in this way matters Kt - weeded, until the year .L sod, when Air. Hunter was attacked by u• Se vere rind dangerous illness.. While be was in this critical situation, a Gentleman of the name of Wyatt called upOn, hint, and informed him that the affairs between Mr. Do trot and his tta*mghter had come to.extretnities, and that the connection must in some wayor oth.:r terminate.. Under these circurn,lances, Mr. Hunter said that he had a6.l.ed upon his own judgment hitherto, but fearful that he should be guitry.ot some mistake, he would commit the ques tion to the decision of two friends, Mr. Huntley anti Mt. Ward (One of whom was then sitting under ,the Learned Counsel). fie added, (to Mr., Wyatt), " Talk over the• matter with these Gentlemen ; I put myself wholly into their hands. do not wish to intertere, but if they jud . o it to be necessary, I will guide myself by t:teir determination." Mr. Wyatt stated to the teterek.i what he knew .an the tal)ject, and they were olopinion, that Air. Hunter was called upon by ithperious duty to atibrd pro,. *liOn to his d:ityhtet. Thus impelled, he shelter ed Mrs. DAgherty ti urn the cruelty of her Im,bancL The Deteudaut now began to reel the income fflence of having his wife withdrawn, through when! he.reeeived. the means tat Lk `subsistence, and he expressed the nnmt violent resentment against her father. Ike swore that -,he would tutird,:r Hunter, and that if Hunter were on one Side, and the gal lowaand the grave on the other, he - would not be •prevented front axing a dagger in his heart. These threats came to the ears of Air. Hunter., Mr. Dog , berry, White he uttered them, had been arrested, and Was-in custody, as inrlced, he had been when first the intrigue took plate with Miss HOlrnes.--- It was. stated that Mr. Dogherty. was person ally responsible to. Mr. Htinter for certain gums advanced. In such a situation, the Court would consider Mr. Hunter as fully instified in having lodged a detainer, and from that time to the present ,the Defendant had bean . in 000tineinent. Mr. Dogherty, finding such expedients inetleaual, ' thought proper to operate on the feelings of Oa fa ther by giving notoriety to the infirmity and suffer— ings of the daughter ; and tor this purpose. he pub lished whist he gilled, " The Discovery, or a Do tuelti(4, Tale," in which he professed. to give an .ac count of his own conneCtion with 'Miss Holmes, but, in ,truth, greatly mis-stating every material • 'fact. He said. that Mr,Thaner, finding that her at tachment wit.: stroog, liii k dalighter to a mad house, • to tiw itiidra tree trout the Defendant ; that be resett-d rt e s antis tLmts itni;risoninent, restored her to I " 4 i 3 Piii , : ,, s, and tnar, saitse the event of her war riage, he had .treated her with the iaitr.Ost tender ness andafleaion. _So incorrect was such a reP4- seetation, that she had exhibited articles against him. in this.
